   You know the one, begins with P? Where it's a bit like a D&C and cleans you out - except it's done like a smear and not under anaesthetic?
 Anyway, it's on my 'menu' for my next ET in approx 2 months.
 Can anyone explain to me what it is, and if you know of anyone who successfully got pregnant afterwards most like due to having that done?
 Cheers in advance.    |

   It begins with P, and it's like having a smear, they scrape away the lining a month prior to your cycle, then it grows back differently and helps to improve implantation. Apparently heaps of positive reports have been released about it since late last year.
 But it may not be an issue if you read my latest post in IVF chat...    or should that be    ...

   yeah not sure what starts with P. I am not sure re your hcg level but I have been referring to this http://www.advancedfertility.com/earlypre.htm to help me understand.  
 Off course this would have easier if they hadn't lost one of my blood tests!!!!     |

   This sounds interesting MaeBeeBaby...My mum has told me a number of times that I should have this done as we had a miscarriage years ago but since trying no luck at all. I haven't taken any notice of her but you've got me thinking now after looking it up briefly. 
Can I ask why this has been recommended to you?
